I've been out of the sport for a while, after I decided to get back into it, I wanted to start fresh so I bought this package. My old spyder had bad seals, rust, mask was scratched up beyond repair so it was time for some new equipment.

Tippmann 98 custom marker
Pros: One of the most reliable markers on the market. These things take water, dust, mud, paint, and abuse like it's no big thing. When properly maintained they can last for a decade. They are easy to clean, lube, and upgrade.
Cons: replacement parts/upgrades are way overpriced.

Mask
Pros: The mask they send you is actually a JT mask and better than the one pictured. Comes with Anti-fog film on the inside lens.
Cons: Lens scratches easily.

Pod belt
Pros: Holds 1 C02 or air tank and 6 140 paintball capacity tubes which are durable and easy to pop open.
Cons: Belt sags when fully loaded. Also the belt doesn't quite fit right if you are really skinny like me.

Overall a great set, I would recommend to anyone thinking of getting into the sport. The price is unbeatable; it would easily cost twice this much if items were bought in-store individually.

Just great. Got everything as said.(even got an extra squeegee) Arrived on the first estimated date. (3 days) works great even with the stock barrel. Alot of c02 coming out of the barrel though i would would recommend getting a new barrel for accuracy and less co2(snowing). Great for Woodsball. Sturdy. Hard to shoot fast though. Definitely a woodsball oriented paintball marker. Very good. Great Buy.

I was very happy with this marker and with ultimate paintball. The marker came in about four days and i haven't had any problems with it. Great Deal, too. Would definitely reccomend, and would definitely buy from ultimate paintball again

it was a great deal and the gun is very reliable. rarely chops balls. so far it's been awesome!!

This is a great package overall. Let's start with the gun, Tippmann 98 Custom Platinum edition is an awesome gun, great accuracy can get to a very high fps, very durable. The mask is decent does tend to fog up alittle, the CO2 tank is great and those 6 extra pods are very handy. I would recommend this to my best friend.

I bought this for my son for Christmas. It was about one hundred forty-four dollars. It was great for him as he was interested in a start-up kit but wanted a Tippmann because it can be customized. If you are like me and know basically nothing about paintball, you will be happy with this purchase. I have two other sons who knew less about the game but also wanted starter kits. I bought them Spyder Aggressor kits for around ninety dollars each. The difference is that you cannot add anything like a red dot site, a stock or anything to the Spyders but you can add all of that and more to the Tippmann. Also, the Tippmann came with a 20oz CO2 and the Spyder sets only came with 9oz. I ended up having to buy 20oz tanks for the two Spyders because they ran out of CO2 very quickly. For the money, it is best to start out with the better gun. After having to purchase the larger CO2 tanks, the difference in price wound up being about thirty bucks...not worth it. Do yourself a favor and get this set.

I'm new to paintball and was told Tippmann was the best for beginners. After one 9hr session of woodsball, I must say I'm not disappointed. I did purchase an after market barrel so I cannot speak for the stock one, but accuracy and range were excellent. There was little kick and this marker is highly upgradeable (which is great for me and all other do-it-yourselfers). I didn't experience a single misfire or chopped ball.

As for the rest of the kit, the mask and 6+1 belt were big dissapointments. The mask is flimsy and presses against the ears. I did NOT feel safe wearing this mask on the field. The 6+1 belt doesn't adjust properly and comes loose when walking, never mind running. I tried it on with an empty 20oz co2 tank and empty tubes and it sags drastically. The hopper is generic and can be purchased just about anywhere.

Overall, I was happy with this marker, but not the package. The marker it's self goes for $130, so you can't expect much quality when getting so much for $25. Still, I think you would be better off purchasing just the marker and purchasing the other items separately. It might cost a bit more, but it's worth it for the quality and saftey of yourself or your child.

Bought this late on the 27th, arrived yesterday (the 29th) but was not able to take it at delivery (was not home) so I got it today. Everything was neatly packed, everything was there and the gun works amazing. Thanks a lot guys, definitely will remcommend you to people I know!

If you want a great gun that will last as long as you do, then get this package!

Great deal for this package, I am a paintballer and I love this gun and everything that came with it.

this is an awesome marker. one of the best. ive had no problem wit this marker since i bought it. tippman wont disappoint you. you pay for wat you get. the mask is desent, the pods are great, the vest is a little too big but its adjustable and its very useful, it holds all your pods and still has an extra pouch if you wanna carry an extra air tank just in case. overall its a great product. one of the best mrakers out there.
